Scored this strain from Petrov. His catalog description is pretty brief: “tall, up to 14 oz (400 g)” \ud83d\ude04. It performed beautifully for me. It was one of the earliest to start ripening. It even survived some severe wilting after a shrew chewed up its roots, bounced right back, and kept pumping out fruit right up to the end. I was still harvesting in early October. Also, it was one of the very last vines to succumb to leaf mold.<\/p>\n

Tatyana, are the Orenburg tomatoes pink? Can you give us a rundown on the flavor and texture? Got any sliced photos?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I grew this one this season and it absolutely blew me away. It set every single truss, didn’t drop a single blossom, and was one of the very first to ripen. Really sweet flavor, though mine didn’t quite hit that 14 oz (400 g) mark. Huge shoutout to Tatyana (Tomatanya) for the seeds!<\/p>\n

This one is permanently earning a spot in my garden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
